Don't tell me what to do. I'll kick your arse too.




But I think Zack Gallifafjjnfxvkkfd or will Ferrell would be my choice. Zack G just looks the part, not sure if he could pull it off though.

I don't think I would like one of those comedy types. Ignatius needs to be played straight, like he actually believes the bull shite he says.

Goodman would be great if he were 30 years younger and could pull of a high pitched voice.

Ferrell could pull it off.

Plus, he's the right size.

maybe it's just me, idk, but I think ferrell would be awful for the role.

When I think ignatius I think the guy on teh cover of the paperback


and that isn't will ferrell. A guy like Roy Biggins from Wings would have been perfect.

Wow, never thought of it before but yeah he would be a dead ringer. Maybe a little bit younger (remember Ignatius is right out of college) but otherwise that would be perfect.

I'm going to have to read it again. It's been years.

I'm afraid when they finally make the movie, Ignatius will be played by Josh Gad

What about John C Reilly? He has the look and could pull of the age.

How would you feel about a COD film starring Offerman?
I think he would do well with a good production. (This may not be it though )

Well, Offerman is at least attempting to actually pull it off. Bravo!



Would probably be better if he was 15 years younger though.

Awesome.

Also, I'm confused by the downvotes I'm getting. Did yall not remember the book or appreciate the humor or did it go over your heads of do you just hate me?

Trying to picture him doing a pretentious new Orleans accent, and it's just not coming together in my head.

He doesn't owe you a fricking explanation. This is not a fricking interrogation. Now stay on topic or get the frick out of this thread.

Ignatius has to be in his late 20s-early 30s. I love Nick Offerman, but he's just too old.
Phillip Seymour Hoffman would have been great for the role.
Josh Gad isn't that bad of a suggestion.

Maybe he was considering it and that's where the overdose came from.

He owes us all an explanation. Cheese is integral to understanding Confederacy of Dunces.
